The president of Cornell hit some students with his car, lied about what happened, and cast himself as the victim. Cornell's trustees, palpably aghast at the idea that a powerful man could be held accountable for his actions, have issued an official statement saying fuck the students

Cornell just released this statement from its committee of Trustees investigating the incident where the President ran over a student's foot with his car. The statement extols the President and blames the students.

"The Ad Hoc Special Committee of the Board of Trustees, composed of the Chair and Vice Chairs of the Board of Trustees, has completed its review of the events of April 30, 2026, involving Cornell President Michael I. Kotlikoff and a group of individuals. In concluding its review, the Committee considered evidence gathered by the Cornell University Police Department (CUPD), which included information gathered at the scene of the incident, verified video footage, and a sworn statement provided by President Kotlikoff to CUPD. The individuals at the scene who reported that the vehicle made contact refused medical treatment from the EMS team and refused to provide sworn statements as to their account of the incident. None of the individuals at the scene have provided sworn statements to CUPD, despite CUPD’s repeated attempts to collect sworn statements in the days following the incident. Consistent with its commitment to ensuring a fair and thorough process, the Committee also engaged independent legal counsel to evaluate the independence and integrity of CUPD’s investigation into these events. The Committee has determined that the investigation conducted by CUPD was done pursuant to existing policies without any bias or undue influence. The Committee thanks CUPD for its professionalism and diligence in its independent investigation."

the NCAA uploaded raw footage of the UConn buzzer-beater from every camera CBS had in the building to youtube (will drop in the replies) and the best part has to be this hard pan to Dan Hurley's mom yelling HOLY FUCKING SHIT followed by a synchronized simultaneous HOLY SHIT by both Hurley parents

"The way some of these other immigrants are getting treated in our country right now is a travesty and a disgrace... I think what’s going on in our country — what we’re doing to some of these amazing immigrants, is really unfortunate and it’s really sad." - Charles Barkley on CBS

In 2008 a racist sore loser accused every single woman of color in her race heat of cheating. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd olace worked their asses off for a lifetime just like all of the other women. For their natural gifts they were humiliated internationally and their medals were stripped for cheating.

While this article is sound I wish it wouldn't concede to the framing that the bodies of women should be regulated. Michael Phelps has a 1 in 1,00,000 trait that helps him succeed and he is celebrated for it. A woman has a 1 in 10,000 trait and 20+ years of an athletic career is ended.

The NYT says today’s #NoKings protests had “no shortage of skeptics,” and then quoted exactly one of those skeptics: The chairman of the Ole Miss College Republicans (as of 2025.) But of course, the Times doesn’t ID him as such. He’s just a Concerned Youth.

The marches had no shortage of skeptics. In Oxford, Miss,, Cass Rutledge, a first-year law student at the University of Mississippi, walked through the No Kings protest and around the town square on Saturday and questioned why people thought Mr. Trump was acting like a king. "He is, you know, a duly elected president who won the popular vote and the electoral college in a landslide," Mr. Rutledge said. "And so I'm a little bit confused on how he's acting differently than any other president." He pointed to the stalemate in Congress over the SAVE America Act, the Republican-driven bill to tighten voter identification and registration rules, which Democrats have called an attempt to suppress turnout based on false claims of voting fraud. Mr. Rutledge said that Mr. Trump was "going through the process" to try to get the legislation passed.olemiss.collegerepublicans • Follow The University of Mississippi - Ole Miss Cass Riledge Chairman 59 likes olemiss.collegerepublicans EXEC SPOTLIGHT: Meet Cass Rutledge, Chairman of the Ole Miss College Republicans.

this is like, literally the exact kind of thing that kicked off the revolutionary war. i'm trying to find a way to be goofy and say i'm exaggerating but taxing shipments in order to pay for expensive foreign wars was literally the flashpoint lol

Donald Trump on Ted Cruz: “If I nominate him for the United States Supreme Court, I will get 100% of the vote. The Democrats will vote for him because they want to get him the hell out. And the Republicans will vote for him because they want to get him the hell out too.”
